Be Real with Scrapbook Circle

I
don't know about you, but I am totally guilty of taking tons of selfies
to document everyday life. Additionally, I love using Instagram as a
tool of sorts to keep track of those moments. One of my favorite
subjects is my dog Mabel, and I shamelessly admit to taking more selfies
with her than friends and family.

For
this month's edition of Be Real, where we focus on layouts/projects
that document the every day, I decided to use this selfie of Mabel and
me. The August Kit is full of papers and embellishments that can be used
for many different projects.

I
began by stamping the date and sentiment down the entire right side of
the page. I really wasn't sure where I was going with it but liked how
it looked. Next, I anchored my lighter paper onto a darker piece because
it seemed too light. Finally, I layered patterned papers and vellum
behind my photo and adhered it to the page. To create the title, I used
the chipboard alpha stickers and my Silhouette (I simply typed "selfie"
and cut it out).

My
last steps were to add journaling, embellishments, and stickers. You
will also see a heart and an arrow, which are Scrapbook Circle You Are
Here digital cut files found in the store. I love how the project turned out and the fact that I am documenting everyday moments that might otherwise be forgotten.

Thank you for stopping by! I hope you are inspired to create today!

Hello friends! It's McJen today with a fun layout using the Amy Tangerine Sunshine and Good Vibes collection with one of the hundreds of FREEPaper Issues' cut files that are available in the shop. You can find the Rainbow Clouds file here.

One thing I love about cut files is having the ability to use all or just some of the file depending on the project. Here, I isolated the pieces of the rainbow and cut two of each color, stitched one on top of another, and distressed the edges of the top layer to achieve the effect I was after.

This cut file does have a title over the top of the rainbow; however, I chose to use gold Thickers instead.

I love the glittery gold with the bright rainbow.

The photos were backed with clouds from that were cut with transparency paper from the same collection.

The embellishments were kept pretty simple - I used the Love clip on one photo along with puffy stickers adhered to the rainbow. I added journaling along the bottom of the page, doodled a border, …

The remainder of embellishments were pulled from the January Kit and add-ons.
